Upstream Router Detection for RPF (2) Solutions Operational approach to avoid mismatches Restrict the PIM domain to an IGP domain. All IGPs use link-local addresses to recognize each neighbor. -> global gateways do not appear in the routing table. A static route must use a link-local gateway. Do not assign multiple link-local addresses on a single interface. Another possible solution Introduce a mechanism to resolve link-local addresses corresponding to given global addresses. We would not have to care mismatches with this approach. ICMPv6 node information messages could be used. Need further study and runnging code.
